    basically, KD & WB > Spurs defense

    however, Spurs offense = OKC defense

    therefore OKC wins...defense wins championships folks

    okc seems to be using san antonio's unselfishness against them. they are playing everything for the pass. and are getting a ton of steals from it. i wonder if the spurs will start passing a little less and shooting a little more or just try to get smarter with it.

    SAS role players have been horrible so far. Meanwhile the Thunder's role and bench players have been pretty good. Exactly the opposite of what the "experts" predicted.

    You can hear Seattle and Sonics fans gnashing their teeth whenever the assembly of the current OKC team is talked on air.

    Durant carries the ball quite a bit throughout games.

    up 9 after 3? okc couldn't have hoped for better. will be interesting if SA makes it close if the thunder will just start chucking jumpers and if they will be able to make them.

    splitter is 68% at the line but i swear he's missed about the last 8 i've seen him take and that's the 3rd airball in those last few. crazy.

    1 point in the first 3:40 of the 4th. that's how you piss away a great game.

    edit: i liked reggie saying that westbrook taking a layup was a bad shot. i'm thinking you should take all the layups you can get and live with the result.

    okc tightening up, spurs showing their pedigree.

    harden just sucking.

    Harden seems to be out of control driving.

    Durant has to be more careful to avoid cheap fouls like that.
